My Daughter, McKenzie

Posted on December 18 2014

This is my CHD baby. She was born in 1996 with Tetrology of Fallot, her repair surgery was in 1997. Kenzie is now an active, happy, healthy 18 year old who played volleyball year round. This is her 2014 prom picture, you can barely see her scar. She has some scar tissue and ironically, it forms a bow, I tell her it's because the surgery gave her the gift of life. She still sees her cardiologist every year to make sure everything is working properly.I hope this offers encouragement to any parents struggling with all that comes with the news of having a CHD baby. ~ Proud CHD mom
